    This collection immediately reminded me of a prep school rowing team party from the 50s.  From the varsity sweatshirts, to patterned blazers,  the popped collars, the knit striped rugby shirts, and the board shorts in various prints, the collection is a preppy mans' summer vacation wardrobe.   Its yuppie summer hampton style at its best.  Check out my favorite picks.

      Bespoken really took a more laid back approach to their SPRING 2012 collection.   Their fall collection was rugged gentleman at its finest, while this season is all about safe, wearable, menswear pieces. Key pieces for the spring collection included suiting, tonal blazers, a real funky arm band ala the 40s, menswear shorts, double breasted suits and muted colors. Check out some of my favorite...
